Swedish eye candy
Tue, 4 May 2010
What is it about Swedish homes and Swedish real estate websites? Look at this fabulous 2 level apartment. White, just enough old with new, obviously a great location, a balcony for more than just a couple of chairs ... think party for all your friends, a brick wall to die for, cool spiral staircase (perhaps a liability with all those balcony parties) and lots of light shining in. Check out the wall of mirrors surrounding the flatscreen. Clever idea. I have a new real estate website to stalk, Eklund. Link for this apartment here. Prices will make your hair curl but it's good to dream. (More after the jump.)

Love the colours and all that space...
no wonder its nice... it was in a "make over" tv show like a month ago... im sure the owners just did it to have a free make over and then sell it for double! its nice though... but not worth the price..
I have two more real estate websites for you to stalk :-)
http://www.perjansson.se in Stockholm and
http://www.alvhemmakleri.se/ in Gothenburg (my hometown).
Good stalk-luck :-)

That's awesome and perfect place to relax.
I never tire of the light and airy feeling of Swedish rooms. The staircase in this house is stunning - but my favorite is light floors. Just beautiful!!

I thought the use of mirrors behind/around the television was interesting and reminded me to ask, Do you have any photo inspiration for spiffing up around the TV? Thanks
Misleading post title is misleading. I thought I was going to find pictures of Alexander Skarsgård.
But the pictures are pretty. No, really, they are.
That stair! Anyone know- custom, manufactured????
I bought a house in Sweden a few years ago. And I have to admit the price!!?? Unbelievable compared to the states...The setting- generally unbelievably gorgeous and quaint, the details - everything from old doors to fireplaces and ceilings can make you drool. I'm going to send you guys my some of my favorite real estate sites at home that will make you want to pack up and move over. So glad to see posts about Sweden.
I saw this on the makeover show "Room Service" too. It's interesting the couple is selling ;) Makes you wonder if they got the makeover for free and want to make profit from it. Although I must admit the aparment is amazing, definitely not worth the money.
Wallpaper bookshelf?! Why? I mean...it looks neat, but... I couldn't bare to have a fake bookshelf in my home.
Oh My Goodness...that staircase was enough to send me into fits of jealousy...AND then, ....the roof!!!!
ok, officially inspired by those stairs. i am talking to my contractor TODAY!
